    How often do you check your credit report? If you do, are you ever surprised by your findings?

    I try to do it every other year. I got a copy when we bought the car a couple of years ago. I should get an updated one.

    I check it every year, and no...I'm not surprised by it. I want to get it to a certain score before I buy a house.
